Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Originating in mid-to-late 19th-century France, the Napoleon III style reflects eclectic historicism, characterised by dark ebonised woods, gilded highlights, geometric profiles, and classical motifs.

Craftsmen typically used hardwoods stained black to imitate ebony, combined with brass inlay, gilded plaster or bronze mouldings, and silvered glass plates.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of age on the timber backing, hand-finished gilding with subtle wear, original glass with minor foxing, and period-correct joinery techniques.

Position the mirror above a modern console table, mantelpiece, or within a gallery wall to create visual contrast between contemporary clean lines and historic detailing.

Dust the ebonised frame gently with a dry, soft lint-free cloth, avoiding liquid chemicals or harsh polishes that could strip the finish or damage gilding.
